In Tolkien's Own Words

Disappointed when a promised outing is cancelled, Frodo and Merry are treated to a morning of baking.

Story Notes:

Author: DreamflowerTitle: Baking Day at Brandy HallRating: GTheme: Special Celebrations (recipe!fic)Elements: My prompt was a tartAuthor's Notes: In my version of the Shire, education is a family affair. Young children are taught their letters by parents or older siblings (or in this case, a cousin) and when older they receive further education from other adult members of their families and household. I go by the roughly two-thirds age ratio for hobbits, so in this story, Frodo is almost 20 (which is about 11 in "Man-years", and Merry is 6, which is a precocious 4 in "Man-years").Summary: Disappointed when a promised outing is cancelled, Frodo and Merry are treated to a morning of baking.Word Count: 2,184
